Madeleine Peyroux - Damn The Circumstances Lyrics
Artist: Madeleine Peyroux
Album: Bare Bones
Genre: Jazz
- Songwriters: David Hurst Batteau, Lawrence A Klein, Madeleine E Peyroux
My heart is like a hand-me-down
Made soft by older brothers
My body's like my father's house
The sin of generations
Damn the circumstances
Life is hard enough
Damn the bones that rattle
Faith is good enough
You shook the ground beneath my feet
My hopes turned into water
The house came crashing down on me
In the early morning hours
Damn the circumstances
Life is hard enough
Damn the bones that rattle
Faith is good enough
Now the lines are drawn
And we sleep in the rags and dust
Where all good will is gone
And the dreams we had went bust
Damn the circumstances
Life is hard enough
Damn the bones that rattle
Faith is good enough
Enough, enough
In the Know
